Turning an imported video into a simulation: Is there a better way?

For security reasons, I had to record a 2-minute Zoom call of someone else navigating the application. I now want to turn this into a "Try Me" simulation where users can do the navigation themselves.

can do it by making 41 copies of the video, cutting each copy into the segment I want, and adding each interaction on that segment. And it works.

But hoo, boy that's a lot of work.

Is there a better way to add 41 interactions to a single 2-minute video?

 

Thanks!

  • Follow-up: Now that I've started doing it, making all the copies didn't significantly increase the final file size, and the Trim feature is making things go surprisingly quickly. I'm pleasantly surprised with everything *except* the timeline still showing the full video length instead of the trimmed time.

  • Hello Joe, did you ever find a better way of doing this ?

    I use Camtasia to edit video then use the video clips in Storyline3. I find it much faster to edit video in Camtasia.

  • I'm afraid not; it really is just "chop it up and use the pieces" using whatever tool suits you for the chopping.
